Arabic, in addition to most languages, is completely supported in Microsoft word 2018. However, you need to Add the Language to your computer if you want to type in Arabic. The identical method works for Windows 7, 8.1 and 10.

Click the Language icon inside the home windows project bar — which is ENG if you normally type in English. Select Language Preferences.

Click the Add a Language icon.

Select Arabic from the listing of languages. Languages are listed in alphabetical order in English, and Arabic is within the first column.

Select a country. The country you choose affects your keyboard format. Jordanian Arabic, for example, uses the Arabic 101 keyboard layout. If you aren’t connecting an Arabic keyboard to your laptop, you can pick any country from the listing.

Click on the Arabic language in case you want to set it as the default language and click the Set As Default button. In case you don’t know which keyboard layout you prefer, click Options. To display home windows menus and icons in Arabic, click Options and then download the Arabic language Pack.

Go to the MSDN Windows Keyboard Layouts website. Click the menu and select the Arabic keyboard layout supported with the aid of the country you chose. A small pop-up window opens with a keyboard map, which you may pass to the corner of your laptop even as running in the word.

Open Word and type in Arabic, click the Language icon in the Task Bar and select Arabic.

Type the text which you want, the usage of the keyboard map as a guide. Notice that the text seems from right to left while typing in Arabic. Change the Font and Font Size as desired the usage of the Home ribbon options, simply as you would whilst working on text in English.

To add spelling and language assist for Arabic in Word, click on the report menu, choose Options after which click on Language. Click the Not Installed link beside the Arabic language and follow the onscreen commands.
